Game Skyrim Forum

I would like to find a mod that gives me small, simple jobs. It doesn't have to be a fleshed out guild or heroic quests. I'm more looking for the everyday kind of work - errand boy, picking herbs, delivering stufff etc. I know about the mod called Odd Jobs (if I remember correctly) that adds a notice board in Imperial City, but most of those jobs are quite time-consuming as they consists of finding 10, 20 or 30 plants or various items. I'm thinking more of simple jobs that give you an ok pay. Kind of like an immersion/roleplaying-mod for those who aren't epic fighters.

Does something like that exist for Oblivion?

Maybe the brand new version of my http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1090674-relz-enhanced-economy does what you want? It of course does tons more (that can be disabled in its ini), but a total of 34 of the merchants around in the cities will ask you for help to find items (one unique item per merchant). The items will be found in semi-random places: Each merchant will give a hint by mentioning 2-4 caves/ruins where he think his item can be found, and it will be found in a random container in one of them.

The caves/ruins to search are all vanilla places that see no or very little quest action. No quest arrows, but popups telling you when you've entered a place where an item can possibly be found, so now you've got a(nother) reason to adventure in those caves/ruins.

Sounds like a very nice mod, but I would've hoped to avoid caves and ruines.

There's also http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8520, which makes you an errand boy for a courier service.

I'm currently working on a mod that adds small jobs for thieves in each city, but that will still take a while.

That Delivery Jobs sounds perfect, downloading as I type. Thank you very much.

More mods are of course more than welcome, I'm always looking for these peaceful roleplaying mods.

Delivery Jobs is known to have an error in a quest - read the comments on Nexus.

Darn, ain't that typical.

Enjoy!

Region Revive- Lake Rumere adds several small settlements and farms scattered around the Imperial Isle and the shores Lake Rumere. THere are a bunch of low level quests (mostly simple fetch type) associated with the settlements. I love it, it has a permanent place in my load order.

It's compatable with UL Imperial Isle, Better Cities, Let the People Drink, New Roads and Bridges (although patches may be needed). One thing it does is give Weye a modest makeover (a couple of farms, fields and fisherman's cottages) so it's not compatable with other Weye mods.

Sorry, no link, my work computer is playing up and won't let me, but it's on the Nexus.

I mentioned Odd Jobs in my first post. I saw Goranga Restaurant Job at TESNexus earlier today, it looks quite interesting. Thanks.





Thanks, I will have a look.

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22595 has an Imperial Legion faction that the player can join... which involves patrolling the roads of Cyrodiil, or (more what your looking for) being a tax collecter. The link will take you to the page on the Nexus, but the description is very long....

"There is also a Department of Justice and Census and Excise office within the palace where you can join the legion and rise up its ranks by performing legion duties or you can collect taxes for the Empire and serve it that way. Both are these are jobs you can do for life, without ever taking on a single official quest or adventure, so yes you can role play a dry old tax collector with no personality now if you wish. Or you can walk the roads between cities on patrol keeping the citizens safe from harm as an honest legionnaire. Or you can cheat and claim you did it as a corrupt legionnaire." - desciption of legion job on Tesnexus.

It is quite big file and does require SI, COBL and the Dragon Captions resource pack.

Sorry if this doesnt help

Ah, I have actually downloaded that mod ages ago, but never installed it. Thanks for reminding me.

Uh...
nice! You are nice, TheNiceOne. Will download the new version.

Kragenir's Death Quest has a simple repeatable wine delivery job for Tamika in Skingrad, with about 7 different (town/village based) destinations. And it has several quests that are focused on dialogue. I'm not sure but I think you're already using the mod?

(And if you aren't, don't get it until the update . :hehe:)

There is also Immersive Mining and ...Shetcomb Farm...? It can't remember exaclty...

Thanks, povuholo - yeah, I do got that mod. Can I do that quest independently of other quests? (I remember starting playing the mod and finding myself on top of the chuch in Hackdirt). Will there be more peaceful work-quests in the update?

Tomlong: Hm, think I've tried that one too. Not sure I got it to work properly back in the days, but it might be worth another go. Thanks.
